PS7 and acdsee5

everytime I install photoshop 7 in my pc with acdsee 4.01 or even acdsee 5.0 my pc slows down any idea of this problem?

Not sure of the exact cause but Adobe is aware of the problem and supposeably downloading the PS7.01 update fixes this. I have not loaded the upgrade myself since I am using Elements 2.0 for now until I get more intune to Photoshop 7.

What do you mean your pic slows down? What slows down? What app does it slow down in ? PS7 or ACDsee?

I have both programs and see no slow-down though ACDSee is a piece of cr@p and I'll never buy another program from them.

I have updated photoshop to 7.01 and have ACDSEE 4.0 with absolutely no problems. I prefer ACDSEE to the browser in photoshop Try updating photoshop to 7.01. Its only a guess but mine works fine.

--I know other people use ACDsee and really like it, not me. Granted it is a is a fast viewer but I agree with Jack. I had so many problems with the program conflicting with other applications I finally uninstalled it for good.

I've used various versions of ACDsee, now using 5.0 and never had any problems. I think it's a great viewer and wouldn't hesitate to reccomend it

Their support is CR@P too. They never respond with problems and continually SPAM me even though I've unsubscribed several times. Their program is so buggy that if you use it to view images on a compact flash card and then remove the card, it cannot recover from the error and you have to use task manager to kill the program. What kind of program does not put code in to handle a removable drive in today's world? Photoshop, BreezeBrowser, QImage, Painter, PSP and every other program can handle that situation...

The other thing that bugged me was that I had installed the ACDSee 5 trial before purchasing. After purchasing and installing it, I saw that I had 2 versions of ACDSee 5 installed on my machine. Unfortunately, the version that was registered to handle the various file types as well as browse directories was the trial version. I pointed everything over to the licensed version and un-installed the trial version and guess what? The uninstall of the trial version trashed my license and had to re-install the licensed version.

A week after after I bought the program, I saw an ad for a special which included fotoslate and something else along with ACDSee 5 for the same price as what I paid. I emailed them and called them to see if I qualified for this special but they didn't know what I was talking about - Claimed they weren't running a special even though I had the magazine in front of me and it was the current issue and the special was good for another month according to the ad!

I emailed and reported these issues and never heard back from them.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!

Jumping on the knock ACDSee bandwagon:

There was a thread in December about ACDSee and EXIF data.

It seems that when ACDSee opens a file it "takes charge" of the EXIF data and from then on the only program that can see the data is ACDsee.

Yeh, been there! I tried the 5 trial , worst thing I ever did. I thought it was just me but it was so slow, tries to take over the computer. Back using Irfan, and much happier.
